Report: Obama Supports Military Retirement Pay Cuts
President Barack Obama said Monday that he supports the idea of reducing military retirement pay by about 20 percent.According to the Washington Times, Obama wrote a letter to congressional leaders saying he favors the recommendations put forth by a military commission. Under the plan, troops serving at least 20 years would not be affected and would continue to receive full retirement benefits. Those serving less than 20 years, however, would have their retirement checks slashed by about 20 percent. They must have changed the rules. Back in the Upper Paleolithic twenty was the minimum. Unless he's talking about medical retirements? In that case he's an even rattier busturd than even I thought. Posted by: Hupineger Glomomp52169 2015-03-31 |
